--- Comment #1 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
This might be true for A57 but for our chip (ThunderX), using fused
multiply-add is better.
The other question here are there denormals happening? That might cause some
performance differences between using fmadd and fmul/fadd.
On most normal processors using fused multiply-add is an improvement also.
Can you attach the preprocessed source and what options you are using?
